I hope she breaks a leg, but I am overwhelmed by the energy.
I'm suspicious. We'll see...
I'm getting annoyed by his level of dependence.
I saw that coming. I don't like her. Like a coach that thinks they have to motivate by humiliation.
No Joe. I know what you did... And she would know how to uninstall herself... And there is not uninstall within the app... Ugh!
I don't like Joe and I don't like the mentor.
This is a skit.
We know how people feel about someone else "dropping an app" on their phone without permission.
Come on... kick the doorknob... HA
You better give that phone back! I hate people who borrow stuff and don't return it. Or treat it previous as it is not theirs. Clearly this bleeds into my grudge issue... Okay. Okay.
Colorful charts make a good seque.
Don't you dare mentor...
I still don't like her methods :)
